Yes, there should be instance caps, and they should be visible to users.

That way users can scale, choose, without much thinking.

This same techinque works everywhere, for example MMO games. You have availability visible and choose servers according to it.

This would fix scaling partially without much technical changes.

I've actually found the problem!

FIX:

While searching for community change sorting to 'New' and then it appears, any other sorting (Top All Time, Top Day, Old, etc.) just doesn't show some new communities.

Well I guess it's great news for us croatians :)

torrentgalaxy is okay-ish.

Not rarbg but in a ballpark.

In some countries you can get fined for torrents.

So he would need VPN and/or debrid

Simpler and cheaper to go direct link download as OP.

Yes, even week would be great and big hit.

Two days is .. laughable.

Set sorting to New if it's newer community.

Some didn't show to me if default 'Top' sorting was set.

I can find it on beehaw.org But only if I enter only "avtech" in search.

If I search "![email protected]" it doesn't find anything.

Seems finicky, rules keep changing ...

To me this seems as very important issue to tackle...

I have the same problem. I can't find some communities when 'All' is selected.

Seems to me that is communities creator fault. Maybe they didn't do federation to other instances.
